NFC West standings: Rams alone in first place again after Week 6 win

The Los Angeles Rams were in danger of losing their spot atop the NFC West for the first time this season on Sunday, but Sean McVay’s squad came together to knock off the Jacksonville Jaguars. The win gave L.A. its first 4-2 record in 11 years, while also building the Rams’ lead in the division.

Entering Week 6, the Rams were tied for first with the Seahawks, who had a bye. Los Angeles now holds a half-game lead over Seattle and a one-game cushion over its Week 7 opponent, the Cardinals. San Francisco remained winless on the year after falling to the Redskins, falling four games behind the Rams in the division.

The Rams hold a huge lead in terms of points scored (179), leading the rest of the division by 60 points. They’ve also allowed the second-fewest (138), only trailing the Seahawks in the NFC West (87).

It’s the Rams’ perfect 3-0 road record that has helped them get off to a great start. That’s more road wins than the rest of the division has combined, though they’re only 1-2 at home – the second-worst record in the NFC West.

Up next, the Rams will take on the Cardinals in London. The Seahawks are coming off their bye week and will travel to New York where they’ll face the Giants. The 49ers will host the Cowboys on Sunday, looking for their first win of the season.
